Or maybe the male has been sneaking off to the other side of the anemome and just worrying about himself.

clowns are very sensitive to changes. something as little as moving a coral, rescaping the tank, or even moving the furniture around the tank that its used to looking at can make them stop breeding. if you noticed they stopped breeding after you added leds then that is probably the reason why they stopped if there werent any other changes. but they should resume spawning again once they are used to the leds. please let us know if they resume spawning again! i've heard of clowns breeding in captivity over 10 years.

As I said, I dont really care as i'm not breeding them anyways. Just something I observed. They just eat them as soon as they hatch anyways. I dont have the time or desire to start getting in to breeder tanks and trying to get rid of the fry.
